It's a little complicated with my program because it has both capture
and non-capture generators, so that at full-width nodes it can get
two move generator calls (but quite often only one).  Here's what
mine does on WAC at 1s/position:

nodes: 253,641,295 (full-width: 76,271,236, qnodes: 177,370,059)
capture generations: 82,955,329
non-capture gens: 8,978,145

So, roughly, 254/92 == 2.76 is my ratio...
